Hey. Don't forget to vote on my poll on whether you want Eggy or Niggy! I'm really sorry that this took ages to come out I WILL EXPLAIN ALL AFTER THE CHAPTER.

Onwardsss!

Fang's POV.

Max pulled away from me, and before I could grab her, crumpled to the ground with a yell. Emily… I'll just call her Emily, strode up to her and roughly dragged her up.

"I want this to be a fun challenge." She said. "It won't be fair if you're wounded, it'll just be boring."

Then she grabbed Max's wounded shoulder, making Max scream, and then grabbed her foot.

Emily dropped Max.

"Stand." She spat down.

Max stood up cautiously, and I wanted to tell her to stop, that she'd hurt herself. But she carried on, and it was evident that she was healed.

She stood face to face with Emily for two seconds, and then extended her wings, huge black wings with gold splatters. Emily copied her, and it was odd, like there was a mirror there.

Then Max attacked, driving her knee into Emily's chest. Emily attacked back, driving Max onto the sand.

I lunged forwards to help, only to be savagely yanked back.

I looked around and saw this huge Eraser holding me in an iron grip, and around me other erasers were grabbing the flock and restraining them.

I struggled against mine, I had to help Max, I had to! There was no way I was letting her be replaced!

Max looked at me over Emily's shoulder and we made eye contact for one second. That second seemed to last forever, locked in an everlasting gaze.

But then Emily punched Max, and she was back in the fight.

Max lifted up her hand, a flame rising in her fist.

Emily copied her.

This was bad.

I struggled against the eraser's grip, but I couldn't escape.

I missed a huge chunk of the fight, but I turned around just in time to see Emily fly away from Max and land with a thud.

Then all of a sudden, Max had Emily pinned down in the sand, her hands around Emily's throat, her teeth bared in a snarl, ready to end Emily.

Then, as if from nowhere, Ari landed on the beach behind Max.

He looked at me and grinned, striding up to Max.

"MAX!" I yelled as loud as I could. She looked at me, her hands still in a death grip around Emily's throat.

"ARI! ARI IS BEHI-" I shouted before the eraser holding me put a thick hand over my mouth.

Max understood me though, looking up. She turned around and saw Ari, and leaped off of Emily, spreading her wins and jumping in the air, but Ari jumped up and grabbed her ankle, viciously yanking her down, slamming her into the sand.

Emily gasped, her own hands holding her throat. She looked like a fish out of water, desperately trying to suck in air, but to no end.

Ari grabbed the neck of Max's T-shirt and lifted her up. Max struggled and kicked, but was dwarfed by the fully morphed Ari.

She lit up her palm again, reaching back and grabbing Ari's hand. He yelled and let her go, and she sprinted over to us before he could grab her again.

We made eye contact and she nodded, kicking the eraser which was holding me, to no avail. She leapt forward and put her flaming palm on the Erasers face, and he screamed shrilly, a horrible noise, and the smell of burned flesh came from him, along with a sizzling noise.

Max let go and sprang back as he let go of me, and we both sprinted to free the flock of the erasers holding them.

We barely managed it and tried to get away, but Max was tackled by Emily who threw her to the ground.

"Little bitch." Emily snarled, baring her teeth at Max while trying to pin her down.

Max shook her off and kicked her away, only to have Emily scramble to stand and kick her.

Max skittered away and stood up quickly, blocking a punch from Emily and using the energy to throw a punch, flowing with the momentum to follow up with a lethal kick to the ribs.

Emily backed away, sucking in deep breaths.

"A soul for a soul. You have to go." She said, and lunged at Max.

"Get in the air." I yelled at the flock, who all quickly leapt up, unfurling their wings.

I flew up too, keeping an eye on the Erasers that had been restraining us earlier, checking warily to see if any of them pulled out guns.

Yep. There we go. A couple of the Erasers pulled out guns and I only had a few seconds to warn the flock, shouting: "Watch out for guns!"

We weaved and dodged, and I flew up quickly, into a cloud. Looking down, the Erasers seemed to have forgotten about me, concentrating on trying to hit the flock, who were scattering but staying in the air space above Max's and Emily's fight.

I flew on until I was behind the Erasers, turning around and flying low.

The Erasers didn't turn around, so I assume that they didn't know that I was there.

I swooped right over their heads, grabbing the guns from the two Erasers holding them.

After I grabbed them I quickly pulled up, flying as fast as I could.

They jumped up and tried to grab my legs, narrowly missing.

I found the safety on the guns, clicked it on and stuffed them both into my backpack.

They might come in handy someday.

Below the fight raged on, but I couldn't stop it.

If Max just abandoned Emily without killing her…. God knows what would happen. If Max killed Emily, she would be gone forever. If Emily killed Max, she would become fully… here, and replace Max? I had no clue what she might've done.

But it would be bad.

Listen guys, I'm sorry that this is so short. I've been a bit distracted, and I've been concentrating more on my other story.

I'm really sorry to admit that I have kind of considered stopping this story.

I'm sorry guys, but there are a few reasons why this fic might be dropped.

It might not be, but I'm just… I don't know. Lacking inspiration for this story.

I'll explain fully to people who ask me to in the reviews.

I really hope you guys have the best year ever, and enjoy 2014 to its fullest.

Fly on, and make 2014 a good one.

-Raven.
